Autotext in Outlook 2003 on PC without Word

In may job I am required to reply to numerous emails in Outlook with a
standard ending of several lines being my name, name of department, email
address, telephone number etc. I am not a fast typist and this is getting
tedious.
Is their a way of setting this up as auto text perhaps using a macro? I can
not use Word to edit the massages as it is not installed on this PC.
Thanks in advance for all suggestions.

Use the "signature" option. This is similar to the autotext function in
word.

I haven't used Outhouse for eons, but there's gotta be a Signature
option there. Tools, Signature or some such?

Oh my goodness... If I were you, I'd complain to management for not giving
you a training course in Outlook!

You will want to use Outlook's signature tool. From Outlook's inbox, go to
Tools - Mail Format. Click on the Signatures button. From this screen, you
can create however many signatures you need. You can also choose to have
Outlook add a signature to every email that you send, or you can have it
insert it manually.
